The SVGTextElement.getCharNumAtPosition function in Mozilla Firefox before 3.6.20, and 4.x through 5; Thunderbird 3.x before 3.1.12 and other versions before 6; SeaMonkey 2.x before 2.3; and possibly other products does not properly handle SVG text,…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.81%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
